Intended Use
Senographe Pristina generates digital mammographic images that can be used for screening and in the diagnosis of breast cancer. Senographe Pristina is intended to be used in the same clinical applications as traditional mammographic screenfilm systems.
Device Story
Full-field digital mammography (FFDM) system; utilizes X-ray image acquisition system and control station. Components include Cesium Iodide digital detector, X-ray tube, integrated high-voltage generator, and compression paddles. Operated by technologists in clinical settings; provides touch-screen interface for image acquisition, processing, and transfer. Redesigned for improved ergonomics (rounded shapes, soft armrests, thin breast support) and workflow (large workspace, sliding paddles). New gantry motorization allows independent compression and X-ray tube angulation; integrated generator reduces footprint. Radiologists review images to support breast cancer screening and diagnostic decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical image evaluation performed; expert radiologists assessed image quality in a clinical setting, confirming performance is good. No comparative statistical metrics (e.g., sensitivity/specificity) provided.
Technological Characteristics
FFDM system; Cesium Iodide digital detector; dual-track anode X-ray tube with silver filter; integrated high-voltage generator. Features improved ergonomic gantry with independent compression and tube angulation. Software-controlled acquisition and processing. Compliance with applicable safety and performance standards demonstrated.
Indications for Use
Indicated for screening and diagnosis of breast cancer in patients requiring mammographic imaging.

| Product Code: | MUE |
| Predicate Device(s): | Senographe Essential (P990066/S021) |
| Device Description: | Senographe Pristina is a new Full Field Digital Mammography (FFDM)<br>system. The system consists of an X-ray image acquisition system<br>dedicated to breast imaging and of a control station for image acquisition,<br>processing and display. The image acquisition system includes a Cesium<br>lodine digital detector, x-ray tube, integrated high voltage generator,<br>compression paddles. The control station provides a touch-screen user<br>interface to control image acquisition, image processing, and image<br>transfer. |
| Indications for Use: | Senographe Pristina generates digital mammographic images that can be<br>used for screening and in the diagnosis of breast cancer. Senographe<br>Pristina is intended to be used in the same clinical applications as<br>traditional film-based mammographic systems. |
| Comparison Of<br>Technological<br>Characteristics With The<br>Predicate Device: | Senographe Pristina uses the same fundamental technology as<br>Senographe Essential in terms of image acquisition (X-ray tube, detector,<br>image processing). Senographe Pristina includes a dual track anode with<br>silver filter, a Cesium lodine detector |
| | Senographe Pristina was redesigned using actualized components and<br>improved ergonomics. In particular Senographe Pristina was designed<br>with: |
| | Improved patient ergonomics (rounded shapes, soft armrests, thin<br>breast support) for improved patient comfort; |
| | Improved technologist ergonomics (large workspace, sliding implant /<br>small breast paddle) for better access to patient and eased patient<br>positioning; |
| | A new gantry motorization with independent compression and X-ray<br>tube head angulation for upgradability to 3D; |
| | Integrated X-ray generator for reduced footprint. |
| Determination of<br>Substantial Equivalence: | Senographe Pristina has the same indications for use as its predicate<br>device. It uses the same fundamental technology as Senographe Essential.<br>Differences between Senographe Pristina do not raise new questions of<br>safety and effectiveness. |
| | The impact of differences between the predicate and new device has been<br>assessed using applicable FDA Guidance and Standards. |
| | In particular the following testing was performed: |
| | Complete Image Quality Bench Performance testing was completed<br>showing appropriate performance. |
| | A Clinical image evaluation was performed showing that image quality<br>of Senographe Pristina in a clinical setting is good as assessed by expert<br>radiologists. |
| | Compliance was demonstrated against applicable safety and<br>performance standards. Successful System and Software verification and validation. |
| Conclusion: | Senographe Pristina is substantially equivalent to its predicate device<br>Senographe Essential. |
